I definitely think there is a lack of strong Habari themes and welcome Squareweave's generous offer to create one.
Let's take this one step at a time. 1) Squareweave wants to make a professional Habari theme. Good. It could be licensed as anything they want. 2) Squareweave wants to upload said theme to -extras. It must thus be licensed under the ASL. 3) Squareweave is free to include any attribution in the theme it wants. However, if it is licensed under ASL, we would be fully within our rights to remove said attribution. 4) Core themes do not contain (excessive) attribution. If we decide to include the theme in core, we would remove excessive attribution, as we would be fully in our rights to do under the ASL. I do think we should relax the core attribution requirements slightly. We should be free to have the theme.xml file point to the original author's site. This would provide credit where it's due, while only being visible to the blog admin. On Jul 15, 2009, at 6:21 AM, Michael C.
